Maybe I'm just a knuckle dragging ape-man? LOL
It DOES divide and separate - it separates the thinking, rational mind from the sheeple.
Everyone here, from our director on down, usually wears jeans and boots... Part of it is cultural to the area, but a large part of it is practical - if I showed up on the scene of a disaster (or better, gone out to the shop and lit off the forge) wearing a skirt suit, nylons, and pumps I'd not only get laughed off the scene, I'd look like I had no business being there or what I was doing (and would be a danger to myself and likely others). Sure, I've gotten dressed up for work - when it was appropriate (never bothered me at all), but there's a time and place. I'm just lucky I can usually avoid most of those times and places now!
One thing I've never played party to (and even less now) is the "Oh gee, what if So-and-so Muckymuck doesn't like what I'm wearing?" nonsense. But then again, I also know not to dress like my daughter when she was 15.
I have no idea why you are being down-voted. However, I am not sure I understand this comment. I saw Gutfeld on this show the other day and he was in my mind castigating those that were critical of the man's attire and supportive of his accomplishments. Am I misreading what I thought was his usual sarcastic acerbic dialogue?
Regards,
O.A.
One, like in business, you are judged by your appearance. If you don't look like a CEO, then likely, you won't be mistnek for one, nor trusted with said opportunities.
Two, welcome to the world experienced by a woman in the professional world - a man will be judged on what he's accomplished, a woman, on what she wore to the board meeting - even IF she has the company-saving solution to the crisis, the board will pay less attention to her ideas (or one of the men will parrot them and get credit for it) , because they are more interested in (a) how much cleavage is she showing, (b) does she look/sound demanding/prissy/slutty, (c) Why is/isn't she wearing a skirt/slacks/etc...
Heard the phrase "Walk a mile in her shoes?" I bet you thought of pumps when I said that, not what the saying really meant. :-)
